Narrative analysis

Strengths: alignment with large-enterprise standardization and published platform-level compliance/certification statements.
Weaknesses in the training context: the legacy Training Center SKU is retired, requiring customers to re-platform training workflows.
Competitor strengths:
- Zoom is commonly perceived as easier for end users based on community feedback.
- Dedicated lab vendors (Skillable, ReadyTech, CloudShare, Strigo) specialize in hands-on lab capabilities that Training Center customers may need to replace.

Independent commentary on EOL and alternatives:
